    Hello

    Phishing, as it is a very serious offense, should be primarily handled by the VALVe Staff/contributors as the SR database cannot prevent tempted hijacking.

    Please use the default built-in steam report system method that is provided on the top right of his profile page for these types of disputes to be taken at hand.

    If you were a victim involved in an attempted hijacking incident, please remember to issue a report on their Steamcommunity profile page.
    Go to "More"/"report violation"/"Select the offense committed"/Submit.
